Amplifier altoids tin usb

These days you can buy a fully-integrated class D stereo audio amplifier chip such as the PAM, and there are a lot of pre-assembled modules you can buy cheaply from China. I also bought a spring-loaded speaker wire connector, a 3. I modified a USB cable to have a 2. Although it worked well without an enclosure I used an Altoids tin to make a simple box, which I sprayed black.

JDS Labs' overachieving headphone amplifiers

These are the best-sounding, budget-priced, made-in-the-USA headphone amplifiers the Audiophiliac has ever tested. Seaber revamped the cMoy's power supply and volume control, added a DC power jack, and a special bass boost switch.

The tiny amp sold well and got the company off the ground. The sound is rich and warm, but still detailed, with no loss of resolution.

Better yet, it's battery powered and highly portable, but still gutsy enough to sound great with hard-to-drive headphones like my Hifiman HE s and Sennheiser HD s. The 02 is just 4. The M50 can sound a little mellow and laid back plugged into my iPod Classic, and adding the 02 energized the M50's sound to a remarkable degree.

Bass firmed up and resolution improved; the M50 sounded like a much better headphone. So it's not just that the 02 can play headphones louder than my iPod Classic, the 02 sounds better than the iPod at low and moderate volume. I compared the 02 with my FiiO E17 headphone amp , and felt both amps are really good, but the 02 wins on clarity, dynamic punch, and bass precision. Voices also have more "body" and sound more natural over the In that sense the 02 sounds almost like a vacuum tube amplifier, but without sacrificing bass articulation.

The 02 brought a new appreciation of the P5's sound; it's a great little headphone. The cMoyBB can't touch the 02's oomph and refinement, but it's a lot of fun.

It rocked with the Black Keys like a champ, returning to the iPod's headphone jack throttles back the excitement while listening on my Monster Turbine Copper in-ear headphones. Switching on the cMoyBB's bass boost changed that perception in a hurry. It really pumps up the bass, without losing definition. Bass boosted the cMoyBB may be less "accurate," but I like it! Of course, you could also hook up either JDS Labs amp to a computer's analog output, or add a USB digital to analog converter DAC between the computer and headphone amp for even better sound.

These amps can make your headphones sound better than you've ever heard before, but it doesn't make sense to buy a JDS Labs amp if you don't already own a decent headphone. No amp can transform a so-so headphone into a great one.

Seaber ships more than 1, items each month. The amps are also available in kit form. JDS Labs sells assembled amps with a money-back guarantee, with a 15 percent restocking fee.

It is a simple design that fits into an Altoids tin and runs many hours on a single 9V battery. Instructions were provided to those who wanted to build their own. You can get higher volumes without maxing out the volume knob on the player. Of course, not all CMOYs are made the same. Some use cheap components. High quality fully assembled CMOY headphone amplifier kit.

DIY Easy Altoids Smalls Speaker (with Amplifier Circuit)

Chestnut Consulting is an IT service provider. Its too bad most audio formats are low quality to start with. Even if you can listen to HD audio you need HD audio to listen to. To continue this discussion, please ask a new question.

DIY USB Altoids Speaker. (Super Easy)

While we eagerly await the release of c , here are a few rough, rendered previews. A reputable aluminum extrusion shop promised us week lead time and a a competitive price, so we faxed over the deal on July 1. Three weeks passed and I recieved a phone call from their company president, Bob. I have some bad news. We dropped the ball on this one. Although this delayed c by three weeks, everything has worked out for the best.

Teens build cell phone charger using Altoid tins

Whats up guys, I got one single, short question. If I have a normal electric guitar and Bluetooth headphones, is there any way to connect them without a wire? I know headphone amps exist, and I have been able to find plenty of receivers that Not all distortion is bad, most people think distortion sounds like a ruined speaker which is not the case on good tube amps.

Headphone Amp Guitar

There have been quite a few mods using the TP 1amp chargers, but I finally got around to doing my own. Even though I was starting with a fairly simple charger board, I wanted to end up with something full of features. Once you open the lid, you see the full extent of the carnage. Sheer madness.

Also having some extra wire isn't a bad idea either. Where to buy parts. I'm no longer selling this kit or a finished version. I do have a basic Solar USB 2. They're more powerful than this project ever was and at the same price.

Aside from freshening your breath, Altoids, or at least the case they come in, can be used for much more — including the optical mouse above. Continue reading to see some creative uses for these minty tins. Click here for first picture in gallery.
